When I try that webpackConfig ProviderPlugin I get "Uncaught ReferenceError: $ is not defined". Not really, not that I am aware of... This is the best you get: https://github.com/JeffreyWay/laravel-mix/tree/master/src

There is also this: https://laravel-mix.com/docs/4.1/quick-webpack-configuration

I think reproducible test repo help to solve problem

Yah, I think going back to C is probably a better long term solution. The last 3 years have really just destroyed everything I have ever enjoyed about development.

It seems to just get more and more complex with a lot of on paper benefits that never materialize. You guys seem to enjoy this stuff, so please keep it. It makes the rest of us want to kill ourselves.

Dude, the reason this is hard is that you are using libraries from before the dependency graph era. Everybody struggles getting 10 year old tech to work

I am using latest webpack version. I am unable to infer what it is for webpack for load a module when there is no loader/plugin involved.

Evilebot Tnawi

@evilebottnawi

A lot of modules without loaders took 56,412 ms

afrozMT

@afrozMT

Yes, thats what i am trying to undestand

when there is no loader involved, what is it webpack taking time then ?

Evilebot Tnawi

@evilebottnawi

on parsing import/export/require/module.exports

afrozMT

@afrozMT

OKay, so what could be reason(s) for such erroneous time. Any pointer ?

Evilebot Tnawi

@evilebottnawi

Maybe a lot of dependencies, hard to say without source

afrozMT

@afrozMT

/Users/afrozalam/Code/mt-coaching-ui/node_modules/@mindtickle/mt-ui-components/src/Icon/icon.config.json

this file is just a static map of constants:

{ "ADD": "add", "ADD2": "add2", "ADDCOMMENT": "addComment", "ALERT": "alert", "ANALYTICS": "Analytics", "ANNOUNCEMENT": "announcement", "ARROWUPDOWN": "arrowUpDown", "ARROWUPRIGHT": "arrowUpRight", "ASSET": "Asset", "ATTACHEMENT": "attachement", "ATTACHMENT": "attachment", "AUDIO": "audio", }

still it took 3,023 ms

Evilebot Tnawi

@evilebottnawi

maybe :smile:

afrozMT

@afrozMT

overall build time has increased, which justifies this :\

Evilebot Tnawi

@evilebottnawi

maybe you use import { something } from 'my.json'?

afrozMT

@afrozMT

yes we use this :
import ICON_MAP from './icon.config.json';

Evilebot Tnawi

@evilebottnawi

I mean named import: import { name } from 'something'

afrozMT

@afrozMT

nope we never did that.

just one instance if import

Evilebot Tnawi

@evilebottnawi

hm, need profile, it is easy and allow to solve problem fast

afrozMT

@afrozMT

do you mean CPU profile ?

Evilebot Tnawi

@evilebottnawi

no, code

will be great to look on configuration

afrozMT

@afrozMT

here is my webpack config if you want to have quick glance:
http://dpaste.com/0CJQZW5

babelrc :
http://dpaste.com/0H3PKEB

Evilebot Tnawi

@evilebottnawi

maybe using cache-loader for css-loader can decrease compilation time (solved in webpack@5)

afrozMT

@afrozMT

Intresting part is build time is drastically reduced when using babel6 . this problem came when i updared it to babel 7

Evilebot Tnawi

@evilebottnawi

maybe some plugins very slow

afrozMT

@afrozMT

all i ran was just just babel-upgrader script

Evilebot Tnawi

@evilebottnawi

try to profile, it can solve problem

Hi, is this a good place to ask for help? What I'm dealing with doesn't seem to have an answer on StackOverflow

I'm basically trying to reimplement the i18n webpack plugin with the new APIs, but the documentation seems to be lacking at best

John Marinelli

@johnmarinelli

for TerserPlugin is there a way to configure the time that a file stays in the cache ? for example, if i run a webpack build, i would want the output from Terser to be cached for 1 day

KioriSun

@KioriSun

Hey guys, with webpack, is there a way to bundle only some "ES6 imports" into a file(single build), while leaving other files as independent module scripts to be loaded at runtime?
(This is with Typescript btw)

Each of these files might or might not have their own subfolders, etc.

Gregory Danko

Hey Guys! Is there a way to add a hash to dynamically imported chunk name?
Example: () => import(/ webpackChunkName: "MainPage.[hash]" / './Pages/MainPage');

John Marinelli

@johnmarinelli

@g-style it looks like you can only use [index] and [request]: https://webpack.js.org/api/module-methods/#magic-comments
why do you want the hash name in the file? i think webpacks' chunk manifest already covers mapping from "MyFile.js" => "MyFile.h4sh.js". my company has a special mechanism for this, so i am not sure

Rob Christian

@robchristian

I'm having trouble finding examples or docs for compiling coffeescript with modern webpack. I have a legacy project I have to support with a fair number of coffeescript files. Also, the webpack docs mention coffee-script, this module is deprecated and points to coffeescript (no hyphen)

Paul Schreiber

@paulschreiber

If I have this webpack 3 config snippet:

        new webpack.optimize.CommonsChunkPlugin({
            name: uid,
            chunks: [ 'home', 'about' ]
        })

What would be the equivalent config for optimization.splitChunks in webpack 4?

Rob

Uhhhgg. I can't, for the life of me, get webpack file-loader to load files!!!
ERROR in Entry module not found: Error: Can't resolve './src' in '/Users/me/projectDir'

module.exports = [{
    mode: 'production',
    module: {
        rules: [{
            test: /\.(jpe?g|gif|png|svg|woff|ttf|wav|mp3)$/i,
            loader: 'file-loader',
            options: {
                name: '[path][name].[ext]',
            },
        }],
    },
}

@rm-rf-etc

Dude, WTH?? Webpack exits with an error code, EVEN THOUGH my files copied without error. W T H.

    ERROR in Entry module not found: Error: Can't resolve './src' in '/Users/me/company/assets'
error Command failed with exit code 2.

const buildConfigs = [{
    mode: 'development',
    plugins: [
        new CopyPlugin([{
            from: path.join(__dirname, './src/images/'),
            to: path.join(__dirname, './dist/images/'),
        }]),
    ],
}

Gregory Danko

@g-style

@johnmarinelli I need the hash name because of cache on prod. Every time we update production server, dynamically imported chunks needs to be updated on our clients machines but it doesn't happens because of cache.
